Writing for a blog

Unless you are already famous if you start a blog don't expect everyone to beat a trail to your blog the first day.

I suppose it could happen but it is unlikely. For most people it is strange what actually goes viral and causes your blog to take off.

I would have never have guessed when I started this blog that these would be the top ten articles of all time:

Top 10 Most Popular Posts

When I started this blog I thought completely different types articles would be on this  list.

You have to meet your readers halfway, you see. IF you are trying to make money you might have to completely pander to whatever your readers want and completely forget what you want to succeed at making money with your blog.

For me, what I"m doing completely works.

Why?

Because I started writing blogs in 1999 when I survived my heart virus as I promised God I would if I survived when no one else I knew of survived a heart virus in 1999 in California. Even my dermatologist didn't want me as a patient because I reminded him of his young 20 something cousin who had died form heart Virus. By the way, it might be a good idea to use anti-biotics when you have your teeth cleaned because you have 1/1000 th of a chance of getting a heart virus (which often is fatal still) if you get any particles of food in your blood stream (veins and arteries)from the cleaning.

So, my heart specialists thought I might die for about 8 months and couldn't even tell me what was wrong with me while I often passed out trying not to panic because my heart couldn't oxygenate my blood. And if you even panic once while passing out you die.

Luckily for me, I had several things going for me:

1. I had studied meditation with Tibetan Lamas in the U.S. India and Nepal.
2. I had had whooping cough and surviving a heart virus for me was a little like surviving whooping cough at age 2.
3. I had been raised a vegetarian from birth to age 32 (lacto ovo Vegetarian) a lot like East Indian Vegetarians were so when I had an angiogram at STanford medical near stanford university they had never seen arteries and veins as clean as mine were except in children 9 to 12 years old or younger.

So, there is something to be said for being raised a vegetarian.(As long as you know how to be a healthy vegetarian which is both an art and a science combined.
So, I survived when many many others didn't.

So, I promised God I would start a Blog to tell the amazing things he had done in my life to keep me alive.

I wanted people to know how important God was to my personal survival from age 2 onward when the angels healed my whooping cough.

But, over time it became not only by my needs to shower thanks and praise on God but to help all beings he had created that might read my blogs as well.

So, then it became a non-profit endeavor to help mankind not go extinct.

Blogging on one level is very simple but simultaneously incredibly complex because of all the variables a blogger can encompass.

So, writing for me is being with God. Writing for me is speaking about God and writing for me can be speaking with God as I'm writing.

And if you talk to God and he answers back you might recognize God's voice sometimes in what I write.

By God's Grace
